Beach head Condo Stay

We enjoyed our stay in this unit. It was clean and decorated in good taste. It had everything we needed for our stay. We liked that we had an ocean view from our balcony. There was an easy access boardwalk to the beach.

Our favorite place so far!

We’ve been staying at different Beachhead condos since our kids were young. This unit was our favorite one so far! It was recently updated, clean and had everything we needed: we had an issue with the lighting and fan but the property manager was very responsive and got it fixed for us. We would love to come back again!

Couples get away

This is a great little condo. Check in process was perfect, they just texted us the door code. It was very clean, and had everything we needed. Good view of the beach, and the boardwalk to get there is right at the bottom of the stairs. That was key this weekend, since the beaches were closed to vehicles we had access to walk on without having to park somewhere and haul everything in. Would definitely stay here again!!

Family spring break trip

My husband and I brought our kids down to Port Aransas for spring break. Our kids are 8 year old boys, and a 9 year old daughter. The whole experience was amazing. The place felt cozy and had plenty of creature comforts for kids and adults. I had the message them a couple times and they were always willing to do whatever was needed to make our time more enjoyable. It was a perfect location, with just a short walk to the beach. The pool was also AMAZING! I’m not one to go to places twice, but we are already planning our second trip, and know where we will be staying.

Second Visit Three Years Later!

We were so very excited to return to this epic location where I park the car and never need it again until we leave! The path to the boardwalk literally starts at the parking spot for this condo!!!! For two parents that do not like sand everywhere nor loading a car to get to the beach, this location is absolutely the best ever. This is why we stayed here again, but this time with the youngest no longer an infant, we realize that we have outgrown this fabulous spot : ( You could tell three years have passed by as some items could probably use a thorough clean or simply being replaced, but we still loved this space. Would highly recommend for families of four as it was a bit tight for our family of five.
